The Button Post on WPCandy.com
I just got an AIM message last night from Michael Castilla creator and co-founder over at WPCandy.com. I was working a late night shift trying to stay on AIM to answer any PureButtons customer service messages, when I get an AIM message saying “Hey, I featured your site” which immediately intrigued me to check their site out.
After spending about an hour chatting with Michael, I decided to blog about his site. I found myself spending a half hour just looking through his website at all the different blog themes. I was extremely impressed with what he had already found. I even put my two cents in on what blogs he should feature next. WPCandy is great looking website and would advise anyone who is a word press junky to check it out.
I’ve posted a few screen shots below for you to check out.
As you can see The Button Post is featured on the home page.
As of today, we are the #1 featured website
WPCandy.com is run by some young guns. Don’t let that fool you though, these guys know what they are doing!
